Cow is consider as a sacred animal when it comes to Hindu mythology and Indians in particular often avoid having ‘beef’ meat as a result. Some states in India have in fact banned the sale of beef.

Meanwhile, Shastri was confident that former India captain Virat Kohli, who has been struggling for form, will find his touch in the Test series against Australia.

Speaking on the latest episode of ICC Review, Shastri said, “Well, the King is back in his territory. That is all I will tell them. When you have earned that title after your exploits in Australia, it will be on your (opponent’s) mind when you go out to bat.”

Shastri issued a word of warning for Kohli to be on the watch in the initial stages of his first few innings Down Under. “Your juices are flowing, you are charged up. It is again a case with Virat. You want to see calmness because at times you are over eager to get out there and throw the first punch.

“But I think that calmness in the first half an hour where he gets out to bat or in the first three innings of the series will be extremely important. If he can be calm and play the game at his own pace rather than being in a hurry, I think he will be fine,” Shastri said.
